Be sure to see the other works there. Pretty amazing stuff.
"Magic Table is a tangible user interface that creates visual effects and sounds. By detecting the objects and movements on the table, the table reacts by displaying visual traces that mimic the objects or movements with abstract sound effects."

"We have a simple sequence running on the Roland SH-101 and ran it into the new Eventide PitchFactor harmonizer pedal.

Eventide has outdone themselves. This thing is fun! The "Quadravox" setting is super cool (listen to the last segment). It actually gives you four harmonies and you can offset their attack. This makes for some really great sounds that are sure to inspire you."

Doepfer Dark Energy

flickr by Analogue Haven

"The new standalone patchable synth from Doepfer, called Dark Energy. It will be shown at Frankfurt Musikmesse for the first time next week. Dark Energy is built into a rugged black metal case with wooden side plates. High quality potentiometers with metal shafts are used and each potentiometer is fixed to the case (no wobbly shafts and knobs). The distance between the controls is a bit wider compared to A-100 modules and knobs with vintage look are used. LINK"

Hohner Roland String Vox Arp String Ensemble

via this auction

"Vintage Hohner International String Vox Machine

String Section has Ensemble which is a chorus like effect just like the Arp String Ensemble. Strings sound eeriely like the Arp String Ensemble as well as a full, deep, rich, fat, lush sound. Also has harpsichord and electric piano sounds, but the real beauty is the classic vintage lush analog strings.

Steve Nieve used this with Elvis Costello and the Attractions a few years ago on tour.

Also reminiscent of Gary newman's 'Down in the Park " sound"

The auction links to this direct sample on Vintage Vibe. I normally do not like linking to direct samples on other sites, but I couldn't find it and posts must go on. Do check out Vintage Vibe. They repair vintage electronic keyboards including Wurlitzer, Rhodes, Honher and the like. I found their YouTube channel and will posting the synth-centric stuff shortly.
